Yeah, right. I see that, now. No. 56 got by me, it was hidden under some wiring, but I got 57 done.
I have seen comments by others about replacing the bakelite caps (No. 67). Is that also something that should be done? If so, I will include that in my next order from Antique Electronics Supply.
I see in the parts list No. 18 is a 16 mfd electrolytic cap. Is that the can on top of the chassis that has two 8 mfd caps in it? I bought two 8's to replace it. I was planning to just put them under the chassis, as they are not very big.
In replacing caps, No. 35 is listed as a 0.05 mfd cap, but when I took it out, it was marked as a 0.25 mfd cap. I replaced it with a 0.25 cap. It was an original Philco, so maybe there was a change somewhere in production?
No. 62 is listed as a 12 mfd electrolytic cap. I have read that I should replace that one with a larger cap, like 20 mfd instead of 12. Is that correct?
Thanks again for the advice. The more I read the forum comments, the more soldering I am doing.
